Here is the link to that article I mentioned.
Does Fan Service Ruin Television
I don’t care about “endgame”–having seen LOST, what really matters is narrative focus. Endgame can sometimes be pretty subjective/ambiguously written, plus its like the last 1% of the story. The narrative right now is not, obviously, on the relationship between Neal and Emma, and I think its poorer for that, but what worries me is the point of view the writers have about what they think fans want to see. If its true that they’re going to explore Henry having a crush before giving us a story about him making a REAL friend his own age, or even how he really feels about never seeing those friends in NY again, or a million other things–that’s just …words fail me.
“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
